I have to say that Tottenham Hotspur is now becoming more and more like a giant team.

It is important to know that a League Cup title was enough to make Tottenham Hotspur fans in London excited for a long time, but now they don't seem to look at a League Cup title at all, and they are looking at the Premier League title with more and more chances of winning, and the Champions League title after a two-year absence.

And in fact, sell Yaya? After Toure, many people feel that Tottenham Hotspur is very unlikely to win the Champions League.

Looking at all teams, the teams that have won the Champions League are basically teams with a more balanced attack and defense, but Tottenham Hotspur's current attack has nothing to say, but the defensive problem is very big, especially in the back position, Phil? Jones was still not convinced.

Even, there are many people who feel that he simply does not have the strength to gain a foothold in the first team.

Is it the seedlings that are pulled out in the autumn to help grow? Or is the media looking away?

Fans are also guessing in their hearts, but sell Yaya? It's a pity that Toure is a pity, and that's an indisputable fact.

When everyone in the entire English football world was arguing about the problems of Tottenham Hotspur, Tottenham Hotspur, who had just won the League Cup, announced a day off to allow the team to rest and recuperate.

But there are a lot of people in the team who don't think so, such as Raul and David Beckham, two veterans who come to the training base almost every day, and they need this kind of non-stop training to keep them in shape, even if they have played very little in a season, especially Beckham, but he still does it.

There is only one purpose, once you appear on the field, you have to show your best side to the fans.

Phil? Jones also came to the training base.

The team didn't train, but he was able to arrange his training program more freely, for example, he went straight to the practice room after a series of warm-ups, because he found that the practice room helped him with passing, stopping and reacting.

Of course, the premise is that you have to go fast and give yourself a sense of urgency as if you were in a game, constantly facing the incoming ball at high speed, and at the same time adjusting quickly to get the ball into the right place, which is very similar to what happens in a real game.

If you slow it down, then this slow training is pointless, it's more like playing.

After an hour of practice, he was already sweating profusely, and his trademark flush appeared on his face.

When the time for the practice room came, it was automatically closed, so he grabbed a towel to wipe his sweat and walked out of the practice room.

At this time, he realized that there were two children, a man and a woman, outside the training room, watching him train.

It's been a few years since Tottenham Hotspur, Phil? Jones also knew very well that these two were Ye Qiu's two children, and they would come to the team every weekend to participate in some children's activities.

"Hey!" Phil? Jones squeezed out an expression that he thought was naïve, but was actually a little disgusting.

Xiao Huang Rong playfully stuck out her tongue and made a grimace, as if telling this rough man, we are called cute and innocent kawaii, and you are called the emperor with a disgusting and tender expression.

"You're too slow!" Ye Chen had an innocent expression on his face that I was telling the truth.

Phil? Of course, Jones knew that what Ye Chen said was that he was practicing at a speed, and compared with Messi and others, he was indeed slow enough.

The fastest should be Messi, Van Persie, Raul who joined this season is also very fast, and then Fabregas, Hazaard, Ribery, Neymar and others are a little bit worse, but it is also very fast, Phil? Jones' speed was the limit for him, and he was much better than when he first joined Tottenham, but it was still worse than many of his team-mates.

He is estimated to be the worst in the team in this regard, and Thiago? Silva, Cavani, and Kompany are almost at the same level, but if he is in another team, he is at least above average, which shows how high Tottenham's overall technical level is.

"That's why I'm practicing, you know!" Phil? Jones was very open-minded and did not get angry in the face of children's criticism, at least it was completely different from his performance on the court.

In fact, he has long been accustomed to this aspect of the blow, because including a considerable number of players in the youth team are much better than him in terms of technical skills, to put it bluntly, the practice room is a dead thing, as long as your basic skills are solid enough, you can play here, but it may not be on the court, after all, there are many factors that determine the performance of players on the field, and it is not at all that the practice room can simulate.

"I'm going to practice, bye!" Phil? Jones waved his hand at the two children, and did not forget to pretend to be tender before leaving.

"Let's go, let's go with him!" Sister Huang Rong pulled her younger brother to follow Phil? Jones goes.

This little girl doesn't like to go to some activities, she always thinks that those activities are all children's stuff, she is a girl now, where can she play with a group of little children who like to cry, right?

The two were relatively slow, and when they came to the training ground, they saw Phil? Jones has already begun.

In the middle of a horizontal bar about four meters high, a hanging soccer ball is tied, and not far behind the horizontal bar is a horizontal bar more than two meters high, on which several things of different heights and positions are fixed that look like gongs.

Phil? Jones is on the side of the horizontal bar with the soccer ball tied, and he keeps jumping up, and he uses his head to hit the ball, and if it hits, it makes a sound, and then the ball is pulled back by the rubber band tied to it, Phil? Jones judged the momentum of the ball, and then hit the gong with the head, and only he knew which position it hit.

"It's boring!" Huang Rong watched very boringly on the sidelines.

Xiao Yechen thought it was quite interesting, especially when he heard the sound of the gong, he kept counting outside, "One, two, three...... One hundred and one, one hundred and two, one hundred and three...... "This kid is patient, sitting on the sidelines and watching Phil?" Jones trained, while her sister Huang Rong ran and played by herself.

"Isn't that interesting?" Beckham asked with a smile when the imp didn't notice, sat down beside him.

Ye Chen snorted, his attention was all on Phil? Jones, he was obviously thinking, how could he not feel tired?

"Shall I teach you how to play football?" Beckham has a good impression of Ye Qiu's son, he looks very beautiful and fair, but he is very smart and very likable, as for that girl, everything is good, and when she grows up, she will definitely be a big beauty who does not lose to her mother, but her mouth is too good to speak, and she likes to talk back.

Seeing Ye Qiu's pair of children, he and Victoria were also envious, and planned to give birth to a daughter himself, the expected date of delivery was in July, hoping that it would be a girl who would not lose to this girl.

"Okay, but I'll have to wait until I'm done!" Xiao Yechen was very serious, but when he spoke, he was still silently counting in his heart, so he didn't fall down.

"Then you wait a minute to come here and find me, and I'll play with you!" Beckham thinks that football is still a men's sport in the end, Huang Rong's girl doesn't like football, but Ye Chen likes football very much, I heard that he now has to watch every Tottenham Hotspur game, and his favorite player is Scarface Ribery, it is estimated that this has something to do with Ribery often going to his house.

All this that happened on the training ground, Ye Qiu could see it clearly in the coaching room on the second floor, because the coaching room, like his office, was facing the training ground with a huge tempered glass curtain wall, which could see everything on the training ground at a glance.

Of course, he couldn't hear what they were talking about, and his mind wasn't on that.

He was in a meeting right now, and there was no one sitting in front of him, except Mauro? Tassotti, Roland? In addition to Shepas, there is also Bobby, who came from the Netherlands? Harms, and the team's chief scout, Peter? De Visser, head of the Center for Sports Research, Peter? Brandt, so to speak, is here at the heart of the entire Tottenham Hotspur sporting scene.

It's no wonder that because the topic they discussed today is serious, important, and even affects the future development of Tottenham Hotspur as a whole, so everyone's face has a serious expression, and there is no usual laughter.

Ye Qiu plans to restructure Tottenham Hotspur's tactics!

Everyone knows that Tottenham Hotspur won the Premier League and Champions League double two seasons ago, and the team's tactics reached its peak, but after that, Tottenham Hotspur began to enter a stage of adjustment and a new round of exploration, but the effect was not very ideal.

Of course, there are many factors in this, such as the team has been selling people, but the reason for this, Ye Qiu and all the people present who are familiar with Ye Qiu's ideas know that it is not because of selling people, because if necessary, people can not sell.

The reason why Tottenham Hotspur has been adjusting and exploring in the past two years is because Ye Qiu himself doesn't know what to do.

And there is a very big limitation is that Tottenham Hotspur has a perfect and stable tactical framework, whether it is to sell Van Persie, reuse Falcao, or now Cavani, or now sell Ziglinski and use Kompany, it is only a partial adjustment in this tactical framework, and there are no major changes.

Ye Qiu was now thinking about making a big change to the team's tactics.

'From a tactical point of view, we realized early on that we had to be resilient!' Ye Qiu explained the reason why he decided to do this, "The so-called toughness can also be seen as elasticity, that is, when we are close to play, we can play the strongest defense, and when we press out, our passing and cutting offense can be invincible. ”

Many people may think that this is a contradiction, but it is not, because whether it was Tottenham Hotspur or Manchester United last season, they were actually very resilient teams with excellent tactical flexibility.

So, what is it that makes this resilience?

It's midfield!

To put it bluntly, any team uses the midfield to integrate the attack in front and the defense behind it, so only by creating a resilient midfield can it have a resilient tactical style.

"I want to say that our current tendency to be technologically technical is too much, and we are losing this resilience, even if Yaya? Toure was like that when he was there, and his departure only opened our eyes to the problem, and one thing that probably no one usually notices is the lack of impact in our midfield. ”

David? Silva and Cesc Fabregas are both delicate but not impactful. When Toure is around, his dribbling forward can show impact at the right time, or is it Thiago? Silva's dribbling is okay, but as the team's entire tactical framework has taken shape, almost everyone is playing according to this framework, which has become lacking in freshness, excitement, and ****.

Of course, Tottenham Hotspur's overall advantage is still very obvious, the attack is as good as ever, and the defense is getting stronger and stronger, but the problem is that the team has not changed much from two years ago.

In other words, Ye Qiu's exploration and changes in the past two years have not achieved much effect.

As Ye Qiu said to many senior executives of Ye Technology, every person, every company, and even every team must have the courage to dare to attack themselves, because only in this way can we break the existing pattern, create a new and larger pattern, and make more breakthroughs.

Just like Ye Qiu's Barcelona in his previous life, after Pep Guardiola, this team seems to give people more and more a feeling of no progress, uniformity, and their performance in the European arena is becoming less and less dominant?

Modern football tactics are progressing too fast, and if you don't keep improving, it won't take two or three years for your opponents to catch up, and all that awaits you is to be overtaken and replaced by your opponents.

"I once said that the current football tactics pay attention to the fusion, the future of the Premier League tactics is also fusion, the position blurring itself is a kind of fusion, and this integration is not only to bring the delicate skills and small-scale cooperation of the Latin school of Brazil and Spain to the Premier League, but also not only to integrate the integrity of the Bundesliga and the tactics of Serie A into the bone marrow of the team, but more importantly, to give full play to the advantages of the Premier League tradition, fast, a kind of fast full of high passion and high game investment!"

Ye Qiu thought of this, paused, and continued: "I have been thinking about a question recently, and I have always emphasized in the past that there must be a fast pace in the next innovation of football concepts, and football tactics will be faster and faster in the future, and even this kind of speed will exceed a person's limit!" ”

This is no secret within Tottenham Hotspur, and the kind of speed that Ye Qiu said is beyond the limits of people, not that a person should go beyond his own limit, no matter how fast the speed of human beings is, it is impossible to be so fast, but on the football field, the speed of the ball can exceed the limits of people.

"The Premier League has always been fast, from the previous long pass rush to the current fast-paced style of play, and we all know that this kind of fast is reflected in the moment of the transition between attack and defense, so I was thinking, if there is a group of players who have a high level of dedication and passion for the game, they have excellent physical fitness and strong individual ability, but also have an excellent sense of teamwork, can continue to run with high intensity and a wide range of running, pressing and pressing, as much as possible to use every inch of space on the field."

"But more importantly, no matter who they are, after anyone breaks the ball, they can start from him, organize and plan counterattacks as soon as possible, and complete the process of switching from defense to attack, and we all know that if the ball breaker has the ability to break through independently and cooperate with fast passing, he will not only help the team complete the transition from defense to attack, but also bring a very rich offensive choice to the team."

Ye Qiu's idea is undoubtedly to build on Tottenham's existing foundation.

If the current Tottenham Hotspur looks a bit like the passing and control system of Barcelona in the previous life, then what Ye Qiu wants is to add more running, more impact, and more resilient play on this basis.

We all know that Ye Qiu's Barcelona in his previous life did not have much toughness, their defensive and physical confrontation ability was not good, and the team's offense had no impact, so they could only rely on constant pulling and penetration to complete the attack, so they had a headache for two types of teams, one is that the defensive system is very rigorous, just like Mourinho's Inter Milan, and the other is the team that presses them to play, which not only reflects their poor offensive ability, too weak impact, but also reflects that their defense is relatively bad.

Of course, in Barcelona's high-possession system, it is difficult for any team to be able to press them, so this possibility can only exist in the concept, or occasionally, but this high-possession style of play itself is not reasonable.

Ye Qiu's promotion of effective possession at Tottenham Hotspur can be seen as an option based on the Premier League.

Tottenham Hotspur's passing, control and cutting tactics have reached their peak, and many players in the team also use a model to play, if Ye Qiu continues to use the existing set of teams to play, it is impossible to make a major breakthrough, so if he wants to try a more impactful, more resilient, and more comprehensive and perfect style of play, he must change and adjust the staffing.

Or to put it in the simplest and most direct way, Ye Qiu wants to move the knife to the midfield, so that Tottenham Hotspur's midfield can be attacked, retreated and defended, and at the same time has amazing resilience and impact.

Or, imagine a midfield of three versatile English midfielders such as Steven Gerrard and Frank Lampard, who are more skilled and playmakers, and who rely on cross-cutting positions, a wide range of active running to cover, and the technical characteristics of attacking and defending, then this set of midfielders is almost incomprehensible.

According to Beckenbauer, the strongest is the weakest, and Saki says that a kaka needs a Gattuso.

Let's say, Kaka is 90 points in offense and 10 points in defense, Gattuso is 10 points in offense and 90 points in defense, and the combination of two players happens to be the best pair of partners, but the problem is that this pair of partners has a very clear division of labor, which is easy to defend, and against Kaka's defense, Gattuso has no offensive ability.

You must know that football, like all industries, the more you go to the top, the more difficult it is, that is to say, it is very, very difficult to reach the level of Kaka's attack of 90 points, and there may be only a few in the whole world, but to reach 80 points, it is not difficult, 70 points is easier, and it is a lot to catch at will, and in the same way, defense is also a truth.

Then the problem comes, if you find some players or cultivate a player yourself, let him defend and attack more than 70 points, single out, the offense is not as good as Kaka, the defense is not as eye-catching as Gattuso, but the problem is that he can both attack and defend, and they are all above 70.

It is very, very difficult, if not impossible, to have a player with Kaka's attack and Gattuso's defense at the same time, but if you have 70 points of Kaka's offensive ability and Gattuso's defensive ability, it is very possible, especially in England.

So, which is stronger between Kaka and Gattuso, or two midfielders who are both 70 points in attack and defense?

The answer goes without saying, it must be the latter!

Or someone will say, is there such a player?

Yes, Ye Qiu knew a lot in his previous life, Yaya? Toure, Schweinsteiger, Vidal, Pogba, but the two players who can best represent Ye Qiu's thoughts should be the two players **** from Arsenal Wenger, Wilshere and Ramsey.

Especially Wilshere, many people call him the prince, because he was regarded by Wenger as the core of the team's midfield early on, the reason is that he almost reflects Wenger's understanding of the integration of English football with the style of continental Europe, the best season of performance, Wilshere intercepts, tackles, passes, organizes, cooperates, individual breakthroughs, almost everything, and all are above 70, and more importantly, he is still so young, and he continues to grow and improve.

You must know that in the FM football manager game, the upper limit of players is 200, but in reality, there is no upper limit to the potential of players, that is, if Wilshere continues to improve like this, it is even possible to practice all of them to 80 points, or even more than 90 points, which is why Wenger is optimistic about him!

If the first few decades of modern football tactics were constantly subdividing the positions on the field, then the future trend of football is position blurring, and the result of position blurring is the all-round player.

If you think about the many positions and types of players right now, it's not hard to see how versatile they are.

Of course, to be clear, all-round does not mean that everything is good, and there will be gaps in everything, so this requires a reasonable combination of players to see how to maximize the team's combat effectiveness.

To be honest, Ye Qiu never regretted letting Yaya go? Toure, even from the current tactical level, Yaya? Toure fits his position very well, but he never feels that the decision he made at that time was wrong, firstly, because the players themselves decided to go, and secondly, Ye Qiu always believed that there are no irreplaceable players.

Because of this, he sees hope, and the combination of English players under the influence of continental European style has created a more versatile, more efficient, and more tactically malleable player style.

Even he was thinking, Mancini values Yaya so much? Toure may have discovered this, and Wenger values Wilshere, in fact, to find the way to this style of play from him.

It can even go a little further, Ferguson has made Anderson a midfielder, Mourinho has made Mikel a beast, they may have such thoughts and ideas subconsciously, but they don't have a specific concept yet.

Think about Arsenal and Manchester United in their most glorious times, Vieira and Keane are both offensive and defensive, with strong impact, and at the same time bear the type of offensive and defensive conversion of the team.

Therefore, Ye Qiu is very sure that this is the future prospect of the big fusion he imagined, not only in the midfield, but also in the front and back, so from now on, Tottenham Hotspur, whether it is the first team or the youth team, needs to make some adjustments in the direction.

At least at the moment, Tottenham Hotspur has two very suitable players in the team, Aaron Ramsey in the first team, and Nick in the youth team? Powell, Bobby? Harms and Peter? Devisel vs. Nick? Powell's assessment is that it looks like Pirlo!

In other words, the technical level has been reached, and at the same time, there is also the passion and tenacity of the English, it depends on how it is carved in the future.

"It's a really fascinating midfield concept!" Bobby? Harms is an experienced old man and knows Ye Qiu very well, because they often discuss together, if Ye Qiu's idea is followed, then this midfielder and even this team will be an all-round team.

In fact, both Michels' Ajax and Sacchi's AC Milan are close to all-round teams because they are able to switch back and forth between the strongest attack and the strongest defense.

"But ......" Bobby? Harms thought for a moment and said: "If you do what you say, then Tottenham Hotspur will not just be a midfield change, but a revolution from front to back!" ”

After Ye Qiu heard this, he knew that Bobi? Harms agreed with his judgment and felt more confident, "So, I plan to take the first step in my plan this summer, sell a superstar, and bring in another superstar!" ”
